100% correct, Thai peole are apathetic, sure there will be protests but not tens of thousands be a few hundred after a couple of day, zero all forgotten, that is the thai way. Remember the thai people voted for this constution. I will be very supprised if he get in. (hope he does) but Thai Laws, like virtually all Thai laws, always have some vagueness so that they can be "interpreted" (anyone ever visit Thai immigration?). The EC was appointed by the Junta and will always find something to question based on their "interpretation" of the rules. Moreover, they'll take their sweet time in doing so against an opposition candidate as every day after the election goes by, the sense of momentum of the winning, Pro-Democracy side wanes just a little. Finally, after they have done their best to blunt a sense of momentum, they'll refer the case to the courts out of an abundance of caution and he will be stopped. Thai's never follow through. look at Payut found guilty in chang mai courts, nothing will happen. Prawit and the watches reports asked to be made poblic, nothing Palang Pracharath Party and the 3 million donation nothing to be forgoten Thailand needs to clean its act up in the eyes of the world nothing will happen, but who cares Iam just a dirty Falang.

I am pissing myself laughing at Prayut the BIG loss of face

well there you go totally biased reporting by the BP these guys want to bring down MF like reading the comments on BP the people know how biased this newspaper is all for the military

Its a Start more to come, hope MF can rescind his get out of jail card, the loss of face will be killing him.

thank god some one with some sence, good post

not intrested mate you are reading too much into it

ok all that i can say is we did not do that and we have publised a few books

there u go

very good point, i know that most thai's who write a book generally published the book themselve, know from experience. therefore as you said he is a publisher of media, but i would think a court would have to decide

and there you go (and so judges have to apply their own... judgement) and judges are appointed by !!!!!

sorry you are correct

good point, The EC. Thai election laws, like virtually all Thai laws, always have some vagueness so that they can be "interpreted" (anyone ever visit Thai immigration?). The EC was appointed by the Junta and will always find something to question based on their "interpretation" of the rules.

it has been de-registers

In the late 20th century, mass media could be classified into eight mass media industries: books, the Internet, magazines, movies, newspapers, radio, recordings and television.

Books are literature and by any definition it media

The problem with the above the courts do not rule on Precedent they take it case by case so even if this is done in the past it does not matter

very good post, (Pita wrote a book or two a while back, and is using this to say he's part of a media empire) Books are literature, so Literature itself is media (grey area)??????? thoughts!!!

Your total post is completely full of misnomers, no facts, all hearsay, Misleading term, should i go on !!!

Total load of Rubbish that may happen in the us or where you come from but not in Thai law Google is your friend

all iam telling you to be carefull what you post on a PUBLIC forum, some thai might take offence

i think you need to check what you are posting as i said thailand has nasty defemation laws and here you are implying that the staff of this park are corupt (no proof)

I dont have a problem with the deaths in In February 2003, but i have a problem with this In 2007, an official investigation found that more than half of those killed had no connection whatsoever to drugs, but you need to tone down the rest of your statment Thailand has very harsh defamation laws, and i dont think you have any proof of what you are saying

Mute disscusion if MF get in the subs will be gone

do you live in a different world, you need to start naming these so called oligarchs methinks it all in your mind fairytails, would love to hear some of these oligarchs, and thaksin was a policeman to start off with

He has said that he is the executor of his fathers estate the shares are NOT in his name, dont know where you have gotten this from, please ref your source as iam not aware of this ???The shares have NOT been sold as this would be breaking the law, the company ITV is in litigation with the goverment and shares can not be sold, your info totally incorrect.
